That's pretty damn good. Four of the top eight in the SEC or from LSU, including three of the top four. Pretty damn strong right there.

I think K'Lavon gonna have breakout year! Our front seven gonna dominate and we got reserves that can and will play

Also you have to take into account the lack of pass rush we had last year at times, if a S is covering a WR purposely it's not meant to be done so for long, the plan is to get to the QB quickly on those plays....we also didn't have alot of chances to blitz because our lack of depth/injuries up front kept us from getting teams into 3rd and long last year....Delpit will be a star next year with our revamped front

Good for this season, was bad for the last. It's good the guys rated as highly as they did but they were having to play out of necessity.

It also doesn't include K'Lavon, Tyler and Jacob who also saw extensive playing time.

Delpit just so happened to fall on those picks last season. He is a center fielder similar to Adams and Earl Thomas. TM7 is one of the very few listed at safety that you would consider a cover safety.

Stop slighting Delpit's ball skills he displayed last year, his first year in DA's system with weak pass rush for most games.
